Chelsea are just ten minutes in to their game at Brighton, but they’ve made an excellent start and are already in the lead.
The Blues put early pressure on, and following a deep hit corner headed back into the box by Tammy Abraham, right back Cesar Azpilicueta was able to nip in and follow up to lash home from close range.
Not the most spectacular goal you’ll ever seen, but it’s given us the lead we deserved and needed.
